I heard that you can buy a brand new set of halos for a $100 bucks and put their lens on your stockers. Then you got brand new looking stock headlights. Or you could just take out the insert and use the halos without the halo

I just bought HALO lights since I like the look better anyway and for $130... it beats all the time I have already wasted trying to fix my stock lights.

I've heard people have wet sanded and buffed them and they have come out great and others have done that and gotten almost zero results. After about 2 hours on my passenger side light, wet sanding and buffing they came out... exactly as they were before.

I did as well, I think the polish is 80% of it. I did 800, 1500, 2000, but only used cheapy autozone polish, I think a buffer is what gets the job done.

Mine came out looking better, but still hazy
